Motherwell's match against Inverness has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch at Fir Park.

The Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash, which was due to be played this afternoon, will be rescheduled after the pitch failed an inspection.

Motherwell chief executive Ian Stillie told www.motherwellfc.co.uk: "It's very disappointing that the game has been cancelled.

"We've had the groundsmen working on the pitch all day yesterday and since 3am this morning but the rain has just not stopped."

Hibernian have also called off their match against Gretna because the Easter Road pitch is waterlogged.

A decision was made after a pitch inspection at 10.45am and the postponement adds to Gretna's fixture backlog.

Their midweek Scottish Cup replay against Morton was called off an hour before kick-off and will be played on Monday.

They also postponed an SPL match against St Mirren on January 2 after the death of Motherwell captain Phil O'Donnell. Gretna are sharing a ground with Motherwell this season and tributes were being paid to O'Donnell at the stadium at the time.
